    “Collapsing Empire: The Resistance Disarms Israel”

    “The Resistance shows no signs of slowing its onslaught, with every indication Tehran’s munitions production continues apace in wartime. Even the Western media has acknowledged Iran’s drone and missile arsenal costs a fraction to produce of the past and future outlay involved in shooting them down. Per #RUSI, the war on Iran has exposed a ‘critical vulnerability’ at the core of the #Empire’s warfighting capabilities: a ‘strategically ruinous cost-exchange ratio that the West’s industrial capacity is not prepared to sustain’.”

  5. “Their warheads use decoys… People should really take the time to look at the lightshow in the sky and try to parse it out. Because what you see a missile coming in and releasing a bus. The bus has a decoy and warhead. So you can see the decoy deploy … they deploy forward and get brighter and the iron dome comes up and start intercepting them and start to release other warheads now.” — Scott Ritter

    When #ScottRitter ( UN Missile Inspector Retd.) explains how Iran has sophisticated #munitions created by aero / rocket / nuclear engineers. This is an example of how #USA Politicians underestimate #CounterInsurgency. Cheaper #techniques to deplete very expensive technology.

  12. A quotation from William James

    “Peace” in military mouths today is a synonym for “war expected.” The word has become a pure provocative, and no government wishing peace sincerely should allow it ever to be printed in a newspaper. Every up-to-date dictionary should say that “peace” and “war” mean the same thing, now in posse, now in actu. It may even reasonably be said that the intensely sharp preparation for war by the nations is the real war, permanent, unceasing; and that the battles are only a sort of public verification of the mastery gained during the “peace”-interval.

    William James (1842-1910) American psychologist and philosopher
    Essay (1910-02), “The Moral Equivalent of War,” Popular Science Monthly, Vol. 77 (1910-10)

  34. On our #archaeological field projects, we unfortunately occasionally come across #munitions from #WW2 In order to be prepared in the event of an emergency, some of our employees recently took part in a training course together with the #EOD Munitions Recovery. They also practised #firstaid in #emergencies caused by the detonation of old #ammunition.

  36. Fourth day of the war, October 10th, status update and major events:


    • Israeli death toll surpasses 1000.
    • #Hamas is pushed out of most settlements around the Gaza strip, except Be'eri, Kisufim and Nahal Oz.
    • Hamas carries out sporadic marine landings on the beach of #Zikkim, and assaults the adjacent IDF outpost.
    • #Israel approves calling up to 360.000 reservists into the IDF.
    • Relentless bombing campaign of #Gaza continues as in the previous days, illegal #WhitePhosphorus #munitions are used.
    • Israel bombs the Gaza side of the #Rafah border crossing with Egypt, and threatens to target #Egyptian aid convoys.
    • Major rocket launches by Hamas towards the settlement of #Ashkelon.
    • Al-Qassam fires a salvo of rockets from #Lebanon into the #Galilee region, promting an Israeli response with artillery and white phosphorus on Southern Lebanon.
    • Hezbollah targets and destroys an Israeli #Zelda M-113 APC across the Lebanese border in #Salha (Avivim), and Israeli #Apache helicopters strike #Hezbollah observation posts in retaliation.
    • #IDF mistakes members of the Israeli police for Hamas members in #Ashdod, leading to a #FriendlyFire incident with several killed.
    • The Israeli occupied #GolanHeights are struck by mortar fire from #Syria, promting IDF artillery to fire at unidentified targets in the vincinity of the Syrian town of #Quneitra.

    Isn't it funny that #AlQaeda and #ISIS that are supposed to be ultra radical Muslim fanatics are completely quiet about the current conflict (As always), and instead attacking Syrian targets just like Israel does?
